Talking about Sony Smartphones, we had recently heard about their new H8416 (This is just the ID. The model number is yet to be confirmed). Sources say this could be their upcoming Sony Xperia XZ3. Today we came across their 2 new model numbers that are the H9436 and H9493 on Sony’s UAProf. Consider their numbering format, this is the first time we have seen their 9 series, which means the H8416 is not the Xperia XZ3.
